Problem with ibm laptop

\015 I have a thinkpad notebook laptop of ibm model 2681 B1A and having problem of error 0250 at starting kindly help me out to solve the problem\015

Answers :

Hi,Error 0250 means that the BIOS battery is dead and has to be changed, they are usually located hidden in the memory panel underneath the laptop and can be covered in red, blue or yellow plastic.

To boot into windows hit the F1 key when you see the IBM logo, go into the BIOS utility and set the time and date, save the changes and exit the BIOS, make sure you have AC power plugged in when you do this as it will not remember the time and date and you will have to do it again.
